A Useless Minority Government Heading Canada’s Way?



A Useless Minority Government Heading Canada’s Way?Just like coming Canadian Winter, a minority government could be heading Canada’s way, bringing little hope for change for main street Canadians. After all the drama of a bitterly fought campaign, Canadians are destined for the same old, same old state of political affairs. You could see it this weekend in the two main party leaders, Liberal Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, making a big play of his hoarse voice in a Saturday night, 11 p.m. rally in North East Calgary, where he has scant support courtesy of his ongoing War on Oil, and in Conservative Leader Andrew Scheer, quaffing a glass milk in a bar in People’s Party of Canada (PPC) Leader Maxime Bernier’s home riding of Beauce, Quebec.
A charged and frustrating political reality when it is considered what Canadians can deliver to the world by voting in a Conservative majority in Monday’s general election: Real Hope & Change that’s not just yet another meaningless political slogan. A Conservative majority would prove that Justin Trudeau investing 600 million Canadian taxpayer dollars under the pretence of supposedly helping a failing media in an election year, couldn’t save a scandal-ridden prime minister from the justified wrath of Canadian voters. A Conservative majority would also prove that former president Barack Obama, who endorsed Trudeau days ahead of October 21 is a spent force as self-appointed U.S. “resistance” leader, and as such, won’t be much help to whomever the DNC chooses as their candidate for the 2020 presidency. A Conservative majority tomorrow would also prove that the $1-billion-a-year-taxpayer-funded Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC), hellbent for leather as they were, failed to deliver Canada to the scandal-plagued Liberal Party. I write this knowing full well that it is Maxime Bernier and the People’s Party of Canada who deserve to win.

But truth is that the media in general, the virtue signalling Liberal Party, the New Democrat Party (socialists) and even Conservative Leader Scheer went all out during the campaign to squash their message of a better Canada without a crippling politically correct future. Because of this blackout, it is not the People’s Party of Canada’s day. But it will be in future, and the PPC will likely do much better than any of the major parties and media pundit expect when the vote has been counted. The biggest potential nightmare in tomorrow’s electoral outcome is a minority Liberal Government. The Liberals, who are addicted to Coalition-type governments in clinging to power, could then move to join forces with the NDP, the Bloc Quebecois or even the Green Party, all of whom think much more like the Liberals than the Conservatives or the PPC do. Imagine the reckless road ahead should the Liberals end in a minority coalition with the radical NDP! It’s been a dog’s breakfast for Canada ever since Trudeau was elected Prime Minister in 2015, with Trudeau listening to the soon to be ex-president of the country next door rather than to the people he was elected to serve.

And it’s looking like a dog’s breakfast for the outcome of tomorrow’s election with a potential Coalition Government led by either the Liberals or the Conservatives. Canadians are a proud but overtaxed, over governed and overburdened people who deserve so much better. Canada is not a self-aggrandizing, preening Justin Trudeau staring at himself as ‘Mr. Dress-Up in the mirror, but a nation being torn apart by the divisive politics of social justice. Canada is not the personal playground for an egotistical politician who sees it as a legacy of Daddy’s Trust Fund, nor for an often milquetoast Opposition leader when hard decisions are in order. Canada at heart is the people who come out to vote election after election in resolute droves ignoring media dictates, hoping for a better day.
